You will need a longer chain, and a longer rear brake line. You could either get the chain from someone who sells it by the link, or just buy 2 100 link chains and 2 master links. With the brake line, just measure from the master cylinder to where the caliper will be and add a couple inches for good measure.

I don't advise you to lengthen your swingarm unless you are an acomplished welder with an accurate jig to make sure the welds penetrate properly, and the extentions are perfectly straight. If you are going to buy one make sure that it is from a reputable company. That is one component you DONT want to fail.

For the chain and sprocket you could check SPENCERCYCLE.COM. I have used them regularly, and they are a great company to deal with. They also can do the swingarm for you which I reccomend.
